No doubt the ball stuck his hand; he was going full pelt. I think someone has just told Gabriel Jesus he has been booked, because he has just gone up to the ref. I don't think he knew he had been booked!

City continue to pile on the pressure and look dangerous without creating very much at all.

It's a slightly different problem to last season when Pep Guardiola bemoaned the fact his side could not take their chances... today, until that disallowed goal by Gabriel Jesus just now, they have not really had any.

He never took his eye off the ball. He knew he was going to get clattered. I do not think that was a deliberate handball. I am not saying he should have given the goal, but it was not a deliberate handball.

Referee Michael Oliver has been waiting patiently to book Gabriel Jesus for his injury but eventually gets fed up of waiting and so books him while he's on the ground getting treatment.

Jesus comes back on the pitch but has to go off again because he had treatment. Crazy rule.

Manchester City are ahead... or are they?

No.

Kevin de Bruyne plays a delicious aerial ball over the Brighton defence and Gabriel Jesus bundles the ball home. It hit his chest and then his hand. And so it's ruled out.

The J man appears to have injured himself as he got whacked by keeper Mat Ryan while handling it home.

Brighton are almost in but Vincent Kompany dives to put in a chance-stopping block. Excellent defending. Can the City captain finally have an injury-free campaign?

The only time that Sergio Aguero got involved, he was in the wide right position and he put a cross in to where he should have ideally been himself. He has not been the striker-type Sergio Aguero so far.

Isaiah Brown has to come off - and Jamie Murphy takes his place for Brighton.

Tim Sherwood: Everybody seems to think City and Guardiola will blow away all opposition to win trophies. Very deja-vu. Remember last season?

Sir Favian Peavez: 10+ mins with Aguerooo, Jesus on the pitch and we have no goals yet. Dull.

Ann: Seagulls fans are great. Went to uni in Brighton 15 years ago and couldn't get a ticket for any game - the stadium was packed for 3 years. They deserve it.

Brighton 0-0 Man City

Oh oh. Brighton debutant Isaiah Brown, on loan from Chelsea, pulls up injured after chasing Sergio Aguero. This might be the end of his day.

Danilo hoofs a cross-field pass straight to Markus Suttner of Brighton. Not great, but Albion eventually lose the ball.

City go forward and Gabriel Jesus can't do anything with Kevin de Bruyne's through ball.

There seems much more purpose behind Manchester City's play.

Brighton frontman Pascal Gross - a summer signing from Ingolstadt - is hobbling after losing a 50-50 tackle with Fernandinho. But the German is OK to continue.

We have seen Kevin de Bruyne put them in from this distance, but I think it is just a touch too far for him. I hope I am wrong. He hit it with his laces through it, but it was straight at the keeper.

We have a shot on target. City playmaker Kevin de Bruyne hits a free-kick from about 30 yards out. It moves in the air, but moves into the hands of Australian Mat Ryan in the Seagulls goal.

Pascal Gross is in on goal... but he started his run too early and it's been called back for offside. Brighton haven't had a touch in City's box yet.

There have been no clear-cut chances. Half-chances have been created down both flanks. It is just sheer pressure right now.

It's weird watching Manchester City schemer David Silva without any hair.

The diminutive Spaniard still moves the same way and plays the same passes now he has shaved off his locks but, as the journalist sitting next to me in the press box just remarked, from a distance he looks a lot like former City midfielder Stephen Ireland - after he decided against his hair transplant.

The movement of Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero is unbelievable. Very hard to deal with.

David Silva corner, Fernandinho heads wide. Attack, attack, attack for City.
